Re: do you remember.....?

Felt like I made an elderly gentleman's day today.

Daughter was in her surgery in Dewsbury with a 75 year old called Jeff. Seems he had lived in Accrington at one time, for quite some time. They had got chatting and told her that he used to do ballroom dancing here (bit of a champion I think) and couldn't remember the names of the ballrooms.

She rang me from her mobile, and I gave her as many as I could remember and the bands, and could hear him saying "Oh, yes", etc. Was lovely to to be able to bring back memories for him. Seems he taught Russian history whilst he was here.

Told my daughter to point him to our web .. hope he turns up.
